The question as text

Two oscillating dippers are used to create progressive transverse water waves on the surface of a lake. The waves are shown from above in Figure 3.1. A B P dippers crest trough Figure 3.1 Wave crests are represented by a solid line. Wave troughs are represented by a dashed line. The waves superpose and an interference pattern is formed on the surface of the water. The dippers oscillate in phase with each other and with a frequency of 3.0 Hz. not to scale
